Recruiter screen

Rebuild the main list in "Recruiter screen", then say what each item changes.

Step 1 of 2

Say it like this

"I've used Cursor daily for about a year and what hooks me is the latency - completions feel instant and that's an infrastructure achievement at this scale, not just a model choice. The networking and edge layer under a 1M-DAU developer tool is exactly the work I want: multi-region latency budgets, abuse protection and cost are the business, not background noise. I've owned VPC and EKS at scale before and I want to do it where it matters this much."

  • Have your 90-second at-scale infra story rehearsed out loud, with the metric and how you measured it.
  • Be ready to name the specific infra layer you want and why it fits your strengths.
  • Bring one honest question about the infra roadmap or team shape - it signals you're evaluating them too.
